Greetings New and Returning Adams Parents!

It is my pleasure to welcome you to another school year as an Adams Tiger!  Our first day of school is August 21st, however, to ensure your child is enrolled and assigned to a classroom, all families must complete the registration process on-line and return the necessary emergency card to the front office by August 12th, 2023. We also invite you to attend School-Years-Eve with more information to come.

Our teachers are excited about the new year, and we both look forward to meeting you all. In the year ahead we will work hard to provide the best educational experience for each individual student, and work together with you as parents to ensure your student’s success.

Part of our school’s success as a California Distinguished School and Title I National Distinguished school is due to the incredible parent support both in and out of the classroom. I hope you consider signing up to lead a committee or volunteering in your child’s classroom at the start of the year. A suggested supply “Wish List” is posted on the school’s website, in case you would like to shop for classroom supply items / donations before school starts. We will kick off the year with our Tiger Love Campaign, which is one of our most important fundraisers, allowing us to offer field trips, student incentives, after-school tutoring and enrichment opportunities, and incredible extra-curricular activities/events for all.

Adams school year will be filled with rigor and memorable activities for our students. The calendar is already filled with special events, educational assemblies, and monthly night activities to share with your family. Save the calendar and plan to attend as many activities as possible! We hope you will stay informed by reading the Principal’s Thursday Message, checking your child’s Thursday Folder, and reading Parent Square messages. These years go by fast and getting involved early, sharing in the memories, and supporting your school is the best investment of time, energy, and money you can ever imagine. I truly appreciate all that the PTA does to support our school!

I look forward to seeing you bright and early on Monday, August 21st.

Kelly Fresch,

Proud Principal of Adams Elementary School
